Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection scores are based on many items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this category have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's higher category grades came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B. It actually performed better than most facilities in this category. Short-term care grades are generally employed to judge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To provide quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. It doesn't appear that this nursing home provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 4.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
We also gave this nursing home a decent score in the category of nursing care, with a grade of B-. The nursing score is based on numerous subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This facility provided just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often an indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we assessed was long-term care. We gave this facility a D in the area of long-term care, making this the nursing home's weakest category grade. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent around the clock care that some other nursing homes provide. After we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility vaccinated only 76.68394 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best feature in this category.
